    In this episode of ABA on Tap, hosts Mike Rubio and Dan Lowery are joined by Brittany Warnke, MA, CCC-SLP, a dedicated Speech-Language Pathologist from San Diego, California.

    Brittany brings her specialized expertise in bridging the gap between speech pathology and behavior analysis to the table. Currently serving at Pioneer Day School, Brittany focuses on collaborative, interdisciplinary approaches to support learners with diverse communication needs.

    In this episode, we dive into:

    • Interdisciplinary Collaboration: How SLPs and BCBAs can work together to create more comprehensive and effective treatment plans.
    • Functional Communication: Strategies for prioritizing meaningful, real-world communication goals that empower students.
    • Bridging the Jargon: Navigating the different professional "languages" of SLP and ABA to foster better teamwork and outcomes for families.

    Whether you’re a practitioner looking to sharpen your collaborative skills or a parent navigating the world of related services, Brittany’s insights offer a fresh, compassionate perspective on how we can better serve our learners together.

    Pull up a chair, grab a cold one, and let's talk shop. Cheers, and always analyze responsibly!.
